[From the New York Observer.
CHARLIE SNOW,
. Let us sec ne?w what they are d fl
ing and saying away at Grand'
father Gray’s house in New Eng
land. Grandfather sits in the cor
ner, smoking his | pipe, by the
avening fire. Grandmother alts
opposit to him, iu her own ourucr,
busy knitting.
“I have been thinking almiit
Mary fora month or ntorejwe did
not do right by Mary.”
“You must apelike for yourself,
father, and not for me. I told
you that Charlie Snow was good
enough for Mary; but you thoglit
she ntigh have married Farmer
Adams’ son, who was so much
richer. You were always a hard
man, Deacon, to get along with;
God knows it, and you know it
yourself’,,
‘’Mother, you are severe, very
severe; yerhnpsl was wrong,—hui
I beg of you, at yuur..time of life,
and after we have lived flit.y years
together, nut to begin to dwell on
my faults. I will tell you what 1
hare been thinking; I would like
to send them n Christmas present.
What do you think about it, moth
er? ’
“What do I think nbout it,
Deacon? It would be a pleasant
and gracious act to send a Christ
mas gift to a stranger: how much
more so to our own flesh nod
blood.”
In the morning, Grandfather
Gray hitched up old Robin Gray,
—that was the lurnily horse,-and
rode into town to his bankers.
“How much ready money ',ave
I beret
“Twenty-five hundred dollars.”
“I watjt to give my daughter,
Mary Gray, five hundred dollars
hud it must reach Fort Dedlock
before or on Christmas day. Now
I want you to tell mo the best way
to get it to her.”
“Does she live near a United
8tates hank?”
“Noe within a hundred miles.”
‘.‘Send it by express; we arc
sending out a number of Western
packages, shall we send yours to
day?”
You say there is no risk of
loss?”
‘Noneat all: if the money is
lost, it will be refunded.”
“Well, you fix it up all right;
you know how better than I do.
You want me to sign my name?
• “Yes.”
“Is that all?”
“Yes, Deacon; it will be all
right.”
“Well, I declairo,” said the
Deaeon, “it don’t take long to fix
things if anybody knows how.”
Granmother Gray also had been
very happy. She told John, the
hired man, to fetch down the
Administratrix Notice,

went on the " i i iy Agtttii.
“Then there a o the Abbot. 8to<
ries, Franc,mia Mountains, Cor
nerstone: (I wonder if the Deacon
will Miss ill*) and here are ull
.1 ed’s college books as fresh and
new as ever: what a want of mon
ey books are, I do declur, thrown
aside like an old garment for
moths and rats to corrupt. They
shan't lie here doing no good: I’ll
send them all.”
Grandmother Gray had a very
p retty col lection of picture books,
unsoiled nudais good as new; they
luid pictures of the cunningest rab
bits, squirrels, deer,birds and oth
er creatures, with stories about
them; she added these hooks,along
witli slates, pencils, paper, pens,
iuk, envelops and postage stamps.
“I don't know any thing about
Mary’s boy, but if lie's like the
other Grays, he will be very lond
of .learning; nud there's a sight of
learning in that ohest.” solilo
quized grandinoilnir.
Now, so far, the collection of
books, paper and so forth, she had
done as a duty she owed to Mary’s
oiiild; the rest of the groit eh i-t.
grandm dlpir ' J":tt.-u led t. dli
its a pleasure. Sk"!(:i,'es li , : a I'l
games had acumiiuliifed and all
as good at new: tiiote wuv
added next. G'aiid u .th.-r wcnl

suits o‘ very g od dollies for ah y
of ten or twelve, :or it a strsnge
thing, if you know the age of a
hoy you can ulmost always guess
what clothes will fit him, Mit
tens, handkerchiefs, bouts and
shoes, bountiful, geueridus grand
mother Gray purchased; aud
when she went home again she set
Betty, her hired girl, to make six
shirts for Charlie. There's noth
ing in this world much better for
it hoy to have than a good grand
mother. Then some very com
fortable clothing was added for
Mary, Now what do you suppose
grandmother Gray r nn.led off
the top of the great didst with? A
fruit-cake, iced as white u suow
on top doughnuts, .t'.liag itfeonku-S
—some Uom.jjHp:epvr: call thorn
jumbles, and s ,;ue sond' (lake bu‘
ariiclules for her marriage, and to
muUi< a I'nahiopithle show of dress
during the honey-moon, aud as
they lived at only a town, she
wrote her father a note* requiring
a concideiable amount to buy her
outfit,and she stated in it that she
expected she would have to send
to the city to get all she needed,
whereupon the old man made the
the following reply:
MDearrst DAtianTBn,—As you
are my only daughter, I may call
you dearest truly, for I love you
very much. I • havo considered
your nolo, aud this is my reply;
I am sorry to see you pussesing a
weakness of most ot your sex, viz:
than you have a largo out fit for
your wedding and honoy-moon.
When I married your mother, she
lmd but two calico dresses ami
other things to fit, and she thought,
herself well off with them, aud 1
really thought her id n calicodresB
the prettiest, sweetest girl iu the
land, and have never thought oth
erwise. She bus made me a dear,
precious wife, and has been to me
t help-mate indeed. Now, my
lour child, I will not refuse you
what ton ask, hut my observotion
n life Inis convinced me that the
g i ls tvlm spend it heap of money
to provide their outfits in mur-
riage are generally sure to spend
a heap of it afterwards, and that
they keep their husband's nose to
the grindstone of misfortuue and
toil all their lives.
“A great many fine things for
your wedding and its after inci
dents will make you no Bweeter or
prettier to yottr husband,and make
you a great deal -dearer' to his
pocket. If the man of your choice
really loves you, as no doubt hs
does, it is not for what you have
on, but lor the qualities of your
person, head and heart; and as he
is a man of sense,! havo no doubt
he will think more of you when he
finds that you have not made any
great preparations for your war
ringe. There aro many geutlo-
nicn in this country, now worth
millions, whilst- wives when they
weie maimed, had it > more than
| your mother. By this 1 do not
iiu mi win should nut have no
j more; bill 'your mother tells me
t-ui.t you have now five neat every
day dresses and lour Sunday ones,

returned with his groceries he had
large liiitMe of candies, al-
tliongh, as a rule, he did not be
lieve in them. The chest was
locked, strapped, and hurried off
by expioss, grandfather Gray said:
“I have not felt so happy in years
and years.”
To BR CoNTINOr D.
A Story of Erery Bay Life.
Old Deacon Brown started in
life very poor. He married his
wife Susan, before the days of
hoops, pads, etc. They had been
happy in their married life and,
great old-fashinued chest >m the u „t(i thorn was h.,r| a k-v.ttifiil
garret and set it in tho kitchen, j g : r |, whom tboy name.r Kato,
Now what do you, think Gruml I who ofoonVse,'wli-n she . row up,
mother Gray thought of the first • f„|| j„ love. Her witoiae was|p„„r
thing? Books. Strange, wan it j but a noble voung man. The
hot? Can you account for it? |Deacon and his wiie liii.l taught
There’s all the good rich ShwieR their child to oliooso lor liersejf,
but lo do it wisely, iitid they were
I’oter Parley we used to call thpm
when I was a girl.” ■.
“Tho world is rouud likea bull,”
said Grandmother. “I remember
it an well as when I first learned
it in my little Peter Parley,
“Sseroa swinging in tho air,”
■glad to see that she rnuoe miOioe
of an cstiiintble y,,ng maq, tti®
neighbor’s sou.
Now, Rate took up a nothin
that sha must have a great many foundation of nil.
niuut may dietate; and to show
you that thin is the (act, I inclose
you a draft for u thousand dollars
on my cashior, which you can use
at your pleasure.
Affectionately yours,
Jobn Brows.”
Kate did not hesitate long as to her
course of action. Her mother gave
her a fow dollars of her pocket mon
ey, aud sho bought only a simple,
plain white dress, andappeardinitat
tho altar, with natural flowers aud
her own lovoliness for adornment.
She drew tho araout of tho draft
in gold, and one month to a day after
her marringe, handed the amount to
her husband, and acoompanod the gift
with these words!
“Doarcst, 1 applied to my father for
money to purchase what 1 supposed 1
deeded for my marriage, and lie wrote
tiiis letter handing It her husband,
and inclosed in it tho draft upon which
I drew this thousand dollars, which 1
now present to yon as the raouoy sav
ed by a victory over a foollth fashion.
ffllavel.doi-0 wisely!”
You have, my hlcssod wife# and
arc a tliousaud times daared to mo by
ynir Judgment,”
It is need'ess to add lhat Die hmbind
of-/title is new worth many thousand
ollnrs, and iu a delightful old age
they ofton tell their friends and chil
dren of tho thousand dollars as the
